1) Can we make the dialog box bigger now?

2) Are we no longer restricted to every two points along a curve now?

Thanks.

It has always been big enough for me. Actually people complained with CS3 that it was TOO big!

CS4 lets you set the Adjustment layer Curves dialog to either small or large.

Only two Points?
Since when?
I can put as many points as I want to on mine — and always have been able to do so.

Or are you talking about the closeness of intervals between LEVELS which can be marked on the Curve?

In CS4, points on a curve can be spaced at 4-level, or 2%, intervals.

Why would you need them to be closer than that?

But they pay big bucks for that…;o)

It’s the 1/3 of a percent moves that kills me and yes you can do that.

When you’re dealing with fine highlight gradations and especially anything gradating smoothly to white, the controls as currently configured are on the coarse side. I wouldn’t call them retard adjustments, just adjustments that most people never need or know that they might need. On some presses you can actually see a difference between .5 and 1 percent, but only in the extreme highlight areas.

Well I guess you have never done Apple work before. I can classify that work as retarded.
